Art Walks

Art Walks, signed locally as Paseos del Arte, is an evening craft market in Corralejo that sets up along Calle Churruca and on the open ground outside the church. It runs on Friday and Saturday from 4pm to 10pm, so it fills the gap between the beach and dinner rather than competing with either. Of the street markets in Corralejo, this is the one you can walk to after a late afternoon at the dunes.

About Art Walks

The market has two halves. Calle Churruca is narrow and pedestrian, so the stalls run in a line and you shuffle past them one at a time. The ground outside the church is more open, which is where families tend to stop. Nothing here is roofed, and the 4pm to 10pm window means the last couple of hours are browsed under street lighting.

What you'll find at Art Walks

Handicrafts, and only handicrafts. There is no produce and no fish counter, so come for things that are made rather than eaten. Two evenings a week on one narrow street makes this half an hour of browsing rather than a morning's shopping.

How to get to Art Walks

Calle Churruca sits in the centre of Corralejo, a short walk from the harbour and the main squares, so most people arrive on foot. There is more background on the Fuerteventura markets guide.

Where to stay in Corralejo

Staying close to the seafront in El Moro puts you within easy walking distance of the art walks and the town's main squares. The Riu Palace Tres Islas is a solid choice if you want a beach position without being far from the centre, and Corralejo Old Town is more central again, a few minutes on foot from Calle Churruca.

What days is Paseos del Arte open?

Paseos del Arte runs on Friday and Saturday only, from 4pm to 10pm on both evenings. It does not set up on Sunday or on any weekday, so a weekend in Corralejo gives you two chances at it. The stalls stand on Calle Churruca and on the open ground outside the church.

Is Art Walks good with kids?

Yes, Art Walks is manageable with children. Calle Churruca is pedestrian and the ground outside the church is open and traffic-free, so pushchairs get through both halves of the market. The earlier part of the 4pm to 10pm window is the calmer one, and the whole thing is outdoors with no roof over it.
